About Siem Reap

Siem Reap ist die Flussstadt neben Angkor, Kambodschas riesigem Komplex von Khmer-Tempeln, mit Nachtmärkten, Flusspromenaden und entspanntem Zentrum.

Angkor Wat, oft das größte religiöse Bauwerk der Welt genannt, erhebt sich über seinem Wassergraben in einer Silhouette aus Lotosknospentürmen, die bei Sonnenaufgang atemberaubend ist. Nebenan birgt die ummauerte Stadt Angkor Thom den Bayon mit seinen mehr als zweihundert gelassenen Steingesichtern, die Elefantenterrasse und den Baphuon, während Ta Prohm von den Wurzeln riesiger Kapokbäume und Würgefeigen umklammert wird.

Top-ranked sights in Siem Reap: Angkor Thom, Tonlé Sap, Kampong Phluk.
